Who authorised the removal of essential parts of Plumpton Level Crossing gates prior to receiving planning permission

Katie Wride made this Freedom of Information request to Network Rail Limited This request has been closed to new correspondence. Contact us if you think it should be reopened.

The request was successful.

Dear Network Rail Limited,

The residents of Plumpton would like to know who authorised the removal of essential parts of Plumpton Level Crossing gates prior to receiving planning permission and why. The crossing is now unable to be safely operated and the road will be closed for up to 3 months causing residents unlimited chaos. There is currently no provision for disabled access.

We would like to see any internal memos/ documents on this as well as NR's contingency plan if you didn't get planning permission.

We would like to know the specific details of why the current gates are now not safe to operate.

Yours faithfully,

Katie Wride
